"A diamond of considerable sizo
was found near GAINESVILLE, Ga, not
long since, that has been variously es-
timated by experts to be worth from
twelve hundred to fifteen hundred
dollars 1t is being set in its rough
state, and will be on exhibition soon.
Fine diamonds have been found in this
country, and large quantities of fex-
iblc sandstone, the matrix of the di-
amond, appears in many places; it is
therefore reasonable to infer that many
of these precious stones will yet be
found here, whenever they are sought
for by those who would know them
when seen.

WASHINGTON, May 9.-The United States
steamship Alliance, which left New York in
November last, under orders to join the
South Atlantic squadron at Rio Janeiro by
way of the Mediterranean and the Cape Of
Good Hope, is now under orders to seize the
schooner Emma Jane of Gloucester, if found
on the high seas, or demand her if she be
found in neutral port. The Alliance is Or
dered to make prisoners of her captain and
crew and send the vessel to the United
States with her plunder. The Alliance Is
also ordered to seize by force, if necessary,
whatever belongings of the schooner may be
found on the island of Johanna, one Of the
Camera group, off the coast Of Mozambique.
These orders have been issued because the
government is informed that the Emma
Jane, after having been fitted out in the
United States as whaler was taken by her
master to the island of Johanna contrary to
the orders of her owner and sold to DR.. Will
son, former naval officer 1t is charged
that Wilson employed her to carry sugar and
it is suspected has engaged her in the slave
trade.
Nothing has been received from the Alli-
ance except that she reached the island Of
Johanna; that her captain was well re-
ceiyed; that DR.. Wilson assured him that he
would do all in his power to assist him in
his mission and that the last he (Dr. Wilson,
heard of the Emma Jane was that she was
seized at Mauretius some time ago. 1t does
not appear that the Alliance has as yet
caught up with her.

United Ireland was taken off the big Cunard
steamship Umbria at 9 o'clock this morning
and brought to this city. The Laura NJ.
Starin took distinguished party of Irish gen.
tlemen down the bay to meet Mr.. O'Brien.
The man who is to attack Lansdowne for
his treatment of his Irish stenantIy seemed
glad to get among friends. An address of
welcome was read to him to which he re-
piled. He was right heartily greeted, and
the time consumed between quarantine and
this city was utilizediin impromptu speech
making
To reporter Mr. O'Brien spoke long
and earnestly about the injustice that Lord
Lansdowne inflicted upon the Irish people.
He has no doubt of his success in stirring up
the people of Canada against Lansdowne.
OF the situation in ireland Mr.. O'Brien
speaks hopefully. He says he finds that the
Irish question is beginning to assume a more
peaceful nature, and it is only question of
time when the victory will come.
Mr.. O'Brien does not regard Parnelps ill
ness as of so serious nature as some of the
cable dispatches indicate. He is far from
well, but there is no danger.
OF Gladstone he. speaks admiringly.. He
says the "grand old man" is now doing
hero's work in trying to right some of the
wrongs under which Ireland suffers.

Of earthquake have been felt daily for sew

There is no doubt that nearly every high
mountain in southern Arizona has, to a
to greater or less extent, had its topograph-
ic features changed, bat as far as can be
learned. there is "a yet no active violence
among them. The earthquake created greas
havoc in the northeastern part Of the State
Of Sonora, Mexico. This portion Of the
State is far from railroad and telegraphic
communication. The following despatch
was received at Nogales, Arizona. yesterday
from Linse Forres, the governor Of Sonora:
The earthquake caused terrible damage to
Montezuma. 1t destroyed several villages
but those in the northeastern part suffered
most terribly. Operto had all It's houses de-
stroyed and nine persons were killed. Ba-
hishi was utterly destroyed and $50 people
were killed. Houses were levelled to the
groand. A new volcano appeared and its
eruption destroyed all the timber and pas
lures Of the adjoining valleys and noun
tains."
